My go red plan

Korina Fitzpatrick: Multicultural Scholar

“The Go Red Multicultural Scholarship will help make my return to college 14 years after high school graduation less intimidating and will allow me to achieve my dream of becoming a nurse to help improve the lives of patients with heart disease.” — Korina Fitzpatrick

Living with a congenital heart disease has allowed her the opportunity to be influenced by medical teams who have given her high-quality healthcare. This motivated Korina to choose a medical career so that she can improve the lives of others, especially children with congenital heart disease.
